Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Mikrostrukturen in einem Glassubstrat (1), bei dem zunächst in beide Außenflächen (2, 3) Lasermodifikationen in das Glassubstrat (1) eingebracht werden. Durch Ätzen des so behandelten Glassubstrats (1) entstehen infolge eines anisotropen Materialabtrags eine Vielzahl kegelförmiger Ausnehmungen (5) in dem Glassubstrat (1). Sobald die Ausnehmungen (5) der gewünschten Größe entstanden sind, wird der Ätzprozess unterbrochen und auf die obere, erste Außenfläche (2) eine gegenüber dem Ätzangriff resistente Deckschicht (6) aufgebracht, die sich somit der Kontur der Ausnehmungen (5) anpasst. Im Anschluss wird das so beschichtete Glassubstrat (1) weiter geätzt, wobei es zu einem weiteren Materialabtrag in der Ausnehmung (5) an der der Deckschicht (6) abgewandten zweiten Außenfläche (3) kommt, während die von der Deckschicht (6) als Ätzresist geschützte erste Außenfläche (2) unverändert erhalten bleibt. Durch den fortschreitenden Materialabtrag kommt es zu einer Vertiefung (T) der Ausnehmung (5), bis diese schließlich eine Rückseite (7) der Deckschicht (6) erreicht hat und der Ätzprozess beendet wird. Dadurch erhält die die Ausnehmungen (5) überbrückende Deckschicht (6) erfindungsgemäß eine dreidimensional konturierte Beschaffenheit, die für vielfältige Anwendungszwecke nutzbar ist.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method for executing an emergency disconnect sequence in shallow water depth includes unlatching a lower marine riser package (LMRP) of a blowout preventer (BOP) from a lower stack of the BOP. The BOP defines a wellbore fluidically coupled to the subsea wellhead. A tubular is disposed within the wellbore. The method further includes shearing the tubular and sealing the wellbore. In response to an indication that a vessel operably coupled to the BOP has failed to keep station, an unlatch sequence and a shear and seal sequence are initiated, such that each sequence occurs at least partially simultaneously. The unlatch sequence includes disconnecting the LMRP from the lower stack, and the shear and seal sequence includes activating the lower stack to shear the tubular in less than about one second and seal the wellbore.
